St Kitts and Nevis: Leader of People's Action Movement (PAM) Shawn Richards addressed the nation as general elections of St Kitts and Nevis are approaching. He stated the polls would be transformative and replace the troubled, undemocratic leadership with a new vibrant team of servant leaders.
He stated that upcoming elections would present many uncertainties, but the only certainty is that the "outgoing Prime Minister will not as return as Prime Minister after these elections".
Shawn Richards said that the majority of elected members of parliament do not support Prime Minister Timothy Harris, "Outgoing Prime Minister is selfishly clinging to power regardless of the damage being done to St Kitts and Nevis,".
"Our parliament comprises of 11 elected representatives; six of us are from PAM and CCM and do not support Harris, two others are from St Kitts and Nevis Labour Party, and they too do not support Harris. This leaves Harris and one other member of his party to support him. In addition, there is one more MP who seems to have put his personal benefits ahead of loyalty to his country and party," said Shawn Richards.
Shawn Richards stated that the People's Action Movement (PAM) is ready to move ahead in partnership with Concerned Citizens Movement (CCM).

He stated that the upcoming elections would heavily focus on rebuilding trust, integrity, and accurate development of people. "I feel very confident about the future of our country and the brighter prospects that are ahead; PAM and CCM are working together of a hope, stability and continuity," said Richards. He stated that the People's Action would announce the list of eight candidates very soon. Furthermore, Richards encouraged all PAM and CCM supporters to check the voters' list to ensure their names are registered and stated that the elections could be held in mid-June or within the first week of July. While referring to Prime Minister Timothy Harris, Shawn Richards said that he (Harris) sat next to his cabinet colleagues while raging a constant war of undermining their efforts and ministries. "We tried to have our concerns addressed to have a change in his ways, but still, he would look you into the eyes and continue his programme of undermining,". He stated that the People's Action Movement (PAM) and Concerned Citizens Movement (CCM tried two formal meetings to resolve the differences, but however Prime Minister and leader of the People's Labour Party (PLP) refused to negotiate. "We tried again with a formal letter with all grievances and to meet for the third time, but he insulted us with an eighteen-page response that again failed to address the issues," said Shawn Richards, former deputy prime minister.Latest
